About us
Lot21 is a new content platform to help the design community decarbonize the world. Our non-profit was formed to simplify and curate climate content for design professionals and students, making it easier to advance climate action across the built environment. Coming from this industry ourselves, we've built this resource to support a common cause. Design touches every person on the planet, and designers can play a pivotal role in guiding conversations about decarbonization when they have the resources they need to take a seat at the table. We’re here to inform, inspire, and ultimately empower more designers across disciplines. And we’re optimistic about what our lot can do to advance climate action, faster. Lot21 provides free access to its content on lot21.org and invites the community to subscribe to its free seasonal newsletter, the QUARTERLY, designed for those with limited time and who want to stay informed. The QUARTERLY amplifies the exemplary work of our peers advancing climate action around the world. Every quarter you’ll be able to quickly browse relevant and actionable stories in our portfolio from the categories listed below. Solutions – natural and technological approaches to removing excess carbon emissions Projects – exemplary works from across design disciplines at the forefront of climate action Resources – an aggregated directory of materials and tools to help decarbonize the world Policy – national and international policies and agreements we need to legislate change Lots – leading initiatives from the thinkers and doers advancing climate action in new ways Join us on Lot21 where you can subscribe to our free QUARTERLY newsletter. With you, we can do a lot more.

Over the past few weeks, we have posted about Biomass Carbon Removal and Storage (BiCRS) and its output, Biochar. It’s a readily available climate removal solution worth repeating because it continues to gain national and international attention. Discover our diverse portfolio of climate solutions and their easy-to-read Understanding pages to learn more. https://lnkd.in/emWuHeHe

It's exciting to see this new international standard ahead of COP29. Please take a moment to read about this unifying effort, aligned with the Paris Agreement goals and poised to make a positive global impact. We appreciate it!
⭐ Big news for carbon removal! Carbon removal has a new international standard ahead of COP29. The Article 6.4 Supervisory Body, part of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, finalized requirements for activities involving carbon removal under the Article 6.4 Mechanism. ✒ The carbon removal definition used in the international standard aligns with the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) definition that the Carbon Business Council called for. ✉ The Carbon Business Council organized a letter signed by more than 100 carbon removal leaders from around the world to the Article 6.4 Supervisory Body’s expanding on why carbon removal is an essential component for a just energy transition and to limit warming to 1.5 °C, along with the variety of co-benefits from carbon removal pathways. The letter requested for the Article 6.4 Supervisory Body to adopt the UN’s IPCC definition of carbon removal to create a level playing field for removals and spur innovation. 🔖 The A6.4-SBM014-A06 standard lays the groundwork for tech-neutral policy for carbon removal, and includes removals storage in “geological, terrestrial, or ocean reservoirs, or in products.” The implementation of the standard will be an ongoing process, including what methodologies are eligible. 🌎 Article 6.4 of the Paris Agreement shapes how global carbon markets operate.

What’s Biochar? And why is it gaining traction as a carbon reduction and removal solution? Here’s a quick primer about biochar, how it's made, how it can help our climate, and why it’s a valuable resource for the built environment. Look out for biochar in our materials category later this month and dive deep into Lot21's Materials directory to access the right resources that you can adopt in your next project. https://lnkd.in/eZT2iiu6
